About Funnel Health

ragespell · April 2015

Hi guys,
I was wondering if the healing component of funnel health stacks with itself (as healing spring) or only one can run on a player (as mutagen)

Thank you in advance and sorry for my bad english

Only one from yourself can be active, even if you hit several enemies. Not sure if the self-only morph stacks with the multitarget-morph cast by someone else, or if the multi-target ones from several allies stack, sorry.

It's like mutagen.

so in pvp combat you should only be hitting this 1 time every 10 seconds at most?

That depends.

You can use the skill as 'suppressing fire' as it's rather cheap and does damage. You can use it for straight damage, with the heals as a bonus. And you can use it for straight healing only at optimal intervals. I would say it's a fairly versatile skill.

i feel like with no cc, and the heals being so weak... its kind of useless? i have plenty of skills that can do better damage/cost ratios. and most of those also come with a cc. (venom arrow, cripple). im thinking of taking this thing off the bar...

It's one of the bread & butter dps skills for magicka based NBs, at least it used to be. The heals were just bonus, but could get quite massive.

The heals are based on the amount of damage the spell does. If your spell damage and magica aren't that high, it's damage and heals won't be so good.

It's usefulness relies heavily on your build and intent with the skill. It is the nightblades only significant in battle heal, but it is lacklustre on a stamina build. On a magica build it is much more significant, but there is the problem of the defensive capability of NB magica....

So, I would say it's versatile, but conditional.

My funnel health only costs 398 magicka to cast. It does great damage and has a good HoT. I spam the heck out of it. If you're planning on using it only for the HoT every 10 seconds I suggest using rapid regen instead because the HoT is small if the player you are attacking is blocking. But if you want a HoT and damage, spam it like a Hawaiian. See what I did there?
